Those Who Cannot Do, Teach (but really this time)

Paul Wolfowitz and Scooter Libby, two prominent members of former President George W. Bush’s cabinet, are teaching a course this Fall titled "The War in Iraq: A Study in Decision-Making". Both were part of a group of prominent neo-conservatives known as the “Vulcans” which helped to design the W's approach to the War on Terror. They are remembered as some of the chief architects of the 2003 "Operation Iraqi Freedom," the Administration’s assertion that Hussein possessed WMDs (Spoiler: he didn’t), and the subsequent U.S. occupation of Iraq. Given the disastrous failure of the Iraq War and the regional situation today, they seem more qualified to teach courses like “Intro to Destabilizing Regions,” “Confirmation Bias: a Primer,” or “Oil Politics 101.”
